    This biggest worry is the lack of A graders coming through.

    Kozzie aside, the next were McVee and Rivers.

    Lots of regression all around. Turner, Kozzie and few others aside.

    This is a coaching and development issue, not player. I think McVee and River will be great, provided they have people around them to help. Like any team.

    It's always a no name potato who kicks multiple goals on us.

    Last week he kicked 3 behinds so of course this week he'd actually kick them
     

    THE COACH HAS TO GO!

    And credit where credit's due. I watched Fritta go back against the flight of the ball. Gutsy effort.

    Big time - saw that too, he is playing well.

    I'm losing faith in River's, I dont think he has the touch to be an A grader. Will still be a 150-200+ gamer. But just a solid footballer i think

    Wow. I love this club and know we are struggling, but what was that? How do I keep watching?

    I honestly do not have words for the football we produced. The amount of times our forwards have led well with the kick going anywhere else but to their advantage. The kicking skills. The decision making. Being annihilated in marking contests.

    Our fire is out, our passion deflated, our socks down and we are playing as if already defeated.

    I have gone in to bat for Jeffo and Kolt but they have both been absolutely appalling. Sharp little better.

    At least Langdon, Fritta, Gawn, Salem and Langford are having a go, but still...

    That was quite bizarre. Maybe he was complaining because he was slightly more up the field... not sure but it seemed weird.

    It is very poor leadership.

    Kosi rotting at FF while we struggle to win or move the ball is a joke. I understand he kicks goals, but he also creates them. We need him back in the middle to cause some chaos.

    We aren’t winning anymore with Viney Trac and Clarry in the same midfield.

    Put Harvey in there, Chin, anything different to try and spark a bit of meaningful movement with the ball. Hell put Salem into the midfield. We literally have nothing to lose.

    Doing the same thing over and over again is the definition of insanity, and I’m going insane.

    If you didn't know it was his first year. You'd look at Langford tonight and swear he was part of our leadership team.

    I'm sure we'll drive him into mediocrity by the middle of next year.

    Look at Windsor last year to where he's at this year.

    When there's complete chaos all around you as a young player, it must just keep chipping away at your confidence

    We seem to Excell at this for decades.

    The Paul Roos era seems to be the only time we seemed to build young players up in skills and confidence rather than seeing them crumble

    Is Frittata playing as as a wingman?

    Is so, why

    Is he playing on the wing.

    Salem runs on a treadmill. He would be eaten alive in the middle. He is good with ball in hand, but he can no longer run faster than a two year old.

    If Jefferson plays again for the MFC, something must be seriously wrong.

    And we have Petty as an emergency!

    Genuinely uncoachable.

    Every kick a turnover

    30+ turnovers

    dropped sitters, missed easy kicks, pathetic game style

    No change to the game plan

    Anyone at this club that finds this acceptable has absolutely NFI

    It’s been coming yet many in denial! What the coaching staff have managed to do to this list is mind boggling, yet our club has blind faith in Goodwin, basic skill errors and kicking skills/decision making, same is long bombs to 2vs1 fwds

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
